Dear Sir Ferdinand von Mueller

I shall bear in mind your request about the young growth of to be preserved in alcohol for Professor Cramer of Zürich

So far from regarding it as a trouble I can assure you I regard it as a privilege to be able to supply by my dredging any forms of life useful to scientific observers. Professor Agardh has generously sent me the latest instalment of Till Algernes Systematik,

Agardh (1873-90), part 6. See the bibliographical comment in n. 2, T. Ware to M, 12 June 1874 (in this edition as 74-06-12a).

containing the &c. It contains I observe descriptions of the following plants forwarded by you.

Ch. corynephora

Gloiophyllis barkeriae var. palmata? See Agardh (1873-90), part 6, p. 30.

p. 39.

Several of the above are new.

Believe me ever with grateful regard

Yours sincerely
